I am hoping to trace the family of Catherine Monaghan and her brother Philip who came to Australia (Port Phillip) on "Alexander" arriving 24 Dec 1841.
She married a Henry Davis within a few years as their first child was born 1845 in Victoria..I am unable to find a Victorian marriage in the indexes available to me.
I am hoping that I might be able to trace their parents.
Help greatly appreciated.

Hello
I am trying to find details of a Thomas Matthew (George) Deering and a Bridget or Julia Lee born around 1800 who had a daughter Mary or Margaret than married a Francis Monaghan. The Deerings were from County Cavan but I have Francis Monaghan from Monaghan Ireland which may be incorrect. I wonder if he may be related to your Monaghan's. Frances and Margaret were born around 1832 and immigrated to Victoria, Australia around 1856/57. Any help would be appreciated. Kaye

Hi Rex
Many thanks for responding. Apparently there is a parish/township Monaghan in Country Cavan which I came across after sending me message. I'm off to the geanological society tomorrow so hopefully may find something. Kaye
